Both the omission and the PVBP presentation will be corrected in the next publication. Compliance and actuarial teams should treat the Delegated Regulation as the governing definition when calculating the CSSR for Volatility Adjustment (VA) purposes.

EIOPA's Q&A 3507 explains that differences between firms' replicated Colombian peso (COP) risk-free rate curves and the published curve can arise from the timing of market data capture. Less liquid instruments may be updated by data providers after EIOPA's snapshot, and EIOPA identified a 3.4bp deviation at the 1Y maturity in this case. Compliance and actuarial teams that replicate RFR curves for Solvency II purposes should understand this limitation when reconciling their results.
